William Hines and his brother Thomas Hines established the pottery Hines Brothers in Fenton, Stoke-on-Trent and built Heron Cross Pottery in 1886 particularly making the classic brown earthenware teapots and tea services for the London Midland and Scottish Railway. The business was taken over in 1907 and became the Kensington Pottery in Hanley in about 1922: this pottery continued until 1937.
